The impact of workplace harassment on the level of mental disorders: the moderating role of gender.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Studies prove a positive relationship between mobbing in the workplace and the level of mental disorders. In the present research, it was decided to test whether gender is a moderator of the relationships under consideration. It is well known that women and men experience differences in the general clinical manifestations of certain disorders such as depression, anxiety and addiction. Furthermore, women are more likely to experience mobbing than men. Therefore, it was decided to test whether gender could be a moderator of the relationship between workplace harassment and the level of mental disorders.

Participants and procedure

Accordingly, a survey was conducted with 220 people aged 22-65 years employed in various Polish workplaces with at least one year of work
